Here's an example of a stickerpicker config in this flake
Afterwards, you can easily host it in an nginx config
{ ... }:
{
services.nginx.enable = true;
services.nginx.virtualHosts."stickers.myhost.org" = {
forceSSL = true;
enableACME = true;
root = pkgs.element-stickerpicker;
};
}

Some notes
To use this, leave the sha256
empty at first, build the stickerspicker with whatever stickers you'd like, and paste the sha256
from the error message back into your code.
Normally, maunium/stickerpicker would cache the stickers in a config file, and reuse the config file on the next run in order not to.
This does not work with Nix' determinism.
Thus every time you want to add just 1 more stickerpack (or any other kind of edit), this will reupload all stickers.
In order to make it easier to delete all sticker once in a while, I would recommend creating a separate user (I've called mine stickerbot
), whose only purpose is to be the owner of a bunch of sticker media files.
Whenever you want to clean up the media store, just delete all the media file of stickerbot
(THIS WILL BREAK OLDER MESSAGES)
